Why you should be buying a real Christmas Tree this Winter

Advent calendars, mince pies and snow underfoot, well a white Christmas might be wishful thinking but it certainly wouldn’t be the festive period without presents under the tree.

So why buy a real Christmas tree this winter?

Real Christmas trees have become less and less popular in recent years, as consumers opt for the low maintenance option of an artificial tree, unaware of the many advantages real fir can bring.

Traditional Christmas trees are all unique, which makes choosing your favourite tree a great family day out, as you can pick one perfect for your home. It will make decorating your tree even more special as you can choose the shape of your tree, which will be exclusive to your home.

Christmas time has so many great aromas: freshly baked Christmas cake, a crackling wood fire and the relaxing fragrance of a festive candle. Enhance the Christmas scent flowing through your home this year buying a real pine tree. The odour produced by evergreen trees is a tranquil essence that will enhance the festive spirit.

When you think of Christmas traditions; you think of stockings at the end of the bed, wreaths hanging on the door and the smell of the Christmas Turkey as it is taken from the oven. A real tree is also part of the classic winter celebrations, sat charmingly in its stand, surrounded by presents and garnished in decorations. You wouldn’t buy a bar of chocolate and eat a square a day as a replacement for an advent calendar, would you?

Lastly, a real Christmas tree is also more environmentally friendly, and you can even choose a potted tree to keep for next year. Recycle your tree by chopping it up for firewood, decompose it, or take it to a designated communal collection point.
